Head of Learning
Purpose of the role
We are seeking a Head of Learning to lead the strategic development and delivery of the museum’s learning programs, ensuring they are inclusive, impactful, and aligned with the museum’s mission to inspire people to explore the meaning of justice and the law through immersive learning experiences.
National Justice Museum is an independent museum and Public Legal Education provider, delivering education programmes nationally. We are based in Nottingham’s Grade II* former Shire Hall/County Gaol, featuring historic courtrooms, a police station and exhibitions exploring the history of justice. We house a nationally significant collection exploring the Criminal Justice System over the last 2 centuries. We empower audiences, providing opportunities to gain knowledge and understanding of the law/justice system.
Our public legal education work is central to our purpose and we operate these programmes in our courtrooms in Nottingham, at the Royal Courts of Justice and the Rolls Building in London and across many sites in the North and through our NJM on Tour programme where we have visited 22 locations across the country over the past 18 months. We now see around 30,000 young people each year across our programmes.
This is a hugely exciting time to join us as we continue to build our reputation around learning nationally and establish NJM on Tour as a core part of our offer. This role plays a key part of our Senior Leadership team supporting the CEO in delivering the strategy agreed by our Board of Trustees.
